>>44545715All true unfortunately. The giant jaw is hard to work with aesthetically, but it is a recognizable "silly monster" trait to distinguish it from Onix. I think only HGSS cracked it, but that game's sprite work was often on point. And of course having to fix Onix is an absolute curse. Mega Steelix rectifies that in a vacuum so much as making Steelix functional, but Sand Force is redundant with base 125 attack, as if the designer in question wanted to be absolutely SURE Steelix could finally hurt things.
